The Guys
Listen, I have to take a minute and thank
all of the guys around here for pitching in and making all of this happen.
We do so many unusual and unique things -- hey and it's all tough! Leave
the easy stuff for Jiffy Lube, we're here for those things others run from.
We are here for more than the dollars and sense (and I spelled that correctly)
of this business, we are passionate about our work and do our best on everything
we do. No short cuts, and the chips fall where they will. You have
to go into stuff like this with an open mind and an open heart for these classic
machines because we are here for more than making them run! In recognition
for their hard work, I wanted you guys to see the help I have and how much I
appreciate their dedication to what many say is a crazy business.
Jason, our Senior mechanic has been with me over 4 years and knows what he's
doing!
AJ, as student at MMI (Motorcycle Mechanics Institute) has the will and is not
afraid of grease.
Alaya, a Virginia transplant has fitted right into the trim shop and is my
designated plumber among other stuff.
Barry, a student at UTI (United Technologies Institute) is my "floater"
preferring the mechanical stuff but has made a name in my book for his interior
finishing skills is also our welder.
Steve has been my carpet binder since I opened over 10 years ago and now with
him here daily, he brings a wealth of knowledge and not only did he bring his
knowledge-- he also brought Greg
I have a father/son team here and man are they fitting in!
Walter is a body man/painter that you dream about. We are honored to have
him do our work.
Kevin does our other paint refinishing on interior parts and small exterior
jobs, Kevin has been with me more than 5 years and has specific knowledge not
available in just any painter.
Omar, not a tent maker but our upholstery man cut his teeth on outfitting
Prevost tour buses. He is a man of details and does perfect work and thats
hard to say today!
Drew Koba has been invaluable in helping us put together our crate motor
program. His years of performance Oldsmobile experience and engine design
and building expertise has made our motors live in the environment of pulling
our 12,000 pound hot rods. The "Kryptonite Cam" is his baby and what it
does for our motors is awesome.
Are you kidding, Janie hold us all together, when you call you will probably
talk to her first. After supporting me all these 28 (soon to be) years,
you gotta understand she makes this all possible.
Nelson,
Lou,
Terry and other GMC owner/helpers come by and spend some time and help us make
it all happen. I can't go without giving them thanks for their help.
Thanks to all who make my job possible! This business was a dream to be
involved in the restoration industry. The GMC and classic RV units in
general has put us in the "RetroMod RV" business in a big way. We are here
to help and people have come for our work. Thanks and shhhhh, let me sleep
a bit, I need it!
